Notes on this filing

Year: filing is the 2023-2024 CDS (enrollment as of Oct 15, 2023; aid data 2023-24 estimated per H1).
C1 enrolled total (1,828 = 792+14+1,002+20) is used for admissions.enrolled. The C2 residency table prints a total of 1,903 (1,609 in-state, 214 out-of-state, 80 international), which does not match C1.
C2: waitlist block has no printed counts (AD_WAIT marked Yes), so all three waitlist values are null.
C8A: the checkboxes refer to Fall 2025 admission policy, while the other data is for Fall 2023. Test policy summarized from C8A checkboxes (SAT/ACT required for some; ACT-only and SAT-only considered if submitted) and C8F (applicants 21+ exempt; rolling deadline). The two sources are consistent.
C9: SAT and ACT percentages are reported as printed (2% SAT, 55% ACT); the SAT percentile figures are as printed.
Retention rate printed as 0.76 in B22 and reported as 76.
Graduation: the 2017 cohort six-year rate (0.56) is printed. The four-year rate is not printed (B4-B11 gives counts only: 582 of 1,535), so grad_rate_4yr is null.
G1: the FIRST-YEAR column is blank and only UNDERGRADUATES values are printed (in-district/in-state $7,380; out-of-state $16,404; required fees $1,900; food and housing $8,800). Per the first-year rule, cost fields are null. Undergraduate figures are not substituted.
H2: pct_need_fully_met = 294 / 879 = 33.4 (line h / line d, first-time first-year column). The printed 'percent' value of 86 in the FRSH_FT_ND_MET_P field corresponds to line I (average percent of need met), not to line h.
H2: pct_with_need_awarded_aid is null because the filing does not print a percentage and the rule permits computing only pct_need_fully_met.
H2: avg_need_based_grant uses line K (average need-based scholarship or grant award, $9,064). avg_need_based_package uses line J ($13,147).
